Lucy Pevensie

major may praise a few viewpoints while dream fans will love it from different angles. Prince Caspian incorporates the landing to Narnia of the four Pevensie posterity of The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. The novel is set about a year later than The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe in English time, yet following 1,300 years in Narnian time. The Pevensie kids are astounding Kings and Queens of Narnia and are mysteriously checked on in reality as adolescents…

does it influence the manner in which the Pevensie children view other animals within the world. This notion is furthered by the fact that Aslan scolds the Beaver for his harsh tone against the white witch (142), and the manner in which Aslan himself speaks towards all animals in the land- showing the children the value of respect- and thus discouraging hostility towards any of the creatures in…

Lewis used kids as main characters so that the young audience could relate to them and could make them want to imitate the ways they thought and acted. Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy, kids in different stages in their young lives, are relatable in different ways: Peter’s leadership and conscientiousness, Susan’s superior attitude, Edmund's shortcomings and later his courage, and Lucy’s passionate faith. They all end up following and obeying the God-like figure Aslan in the story. If the…

meets Lucy for the first time and lures her back to his home for a seemingly innocent spot of tea, when in actuality he has informed the secret police of Lucy’s presence. He readily adheres to the power of higher authorities out of fear. Tumnus tries to rectify his actions by allowing Lucy to escape back through the closet but the damage is already done. Jadis is now aware of the “daughter of Eve” in Narnia, and now seeks further action by imprisoning Mr. Tumnus and laying a trap for when Lucy…

floated by her. And Lucy got the feeling you have when you wake up in the morning and realize that it is the beginning of the holidays or the beginning of Summer” (Lewis, ##). Even the mention of Aslan makes the children feel safe and comforted. Aslan is a protector figure; reflecting Jesus’s image as a powerful, strong king who protects His people like a shepherd protects his sheep. Santiago’s relationship with the boy Manolin is different from Aslan’s relationship with the Pevensie Children.…

power of God” (1 Corinthians 1:18).Perhaps the most obvious theme is represented by Lucy’s journey through the story. Her struggle portrays the struggle of all Christians who must follow the path of faith and obedience, even in the face of opposition. Lucy has to go against her friends and family in order to follow Aslan (Jesus), who appears to her one night and beckons her to follow Him on the path to Aslan’s How, a path the others cannot, or will not, see. When they refuse to follow her, her…

When I was in ninth grade, my history teacher, Mr. Horne, stopped me after class and handed me a mildly tattered book. “This book will change your mind,” he told me, referencing what I had told him the day before. “You will understand that being the smartest person you know won’t work out well emotionally.” I ended up hooked, in tears, and a completely changed person after reading Flowers for Algernon by Daniel Keyes. The movie adaption, Charly, directed by Ralph Nelson, was far less moving.…

This claim is not unfounded; Peter and Edmund are referred to as “sons of Adam” (“The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe” 172). This a direct reference to Adam of the Bible. In the same fashion, Susan and Lucy are referred to as “daughters of Eve.” This is a direct reference to Eve of the Bible. It is also claimed that Lewis’s perception of good and evil is based on the biblical Fall of Man (161). Despite all of this, here is some debate about C.S. Lewis’s…

Reepicheep has in performing such a task. Goodness is not forced upon anyone, even in the land of Narnia. In both the Earthly world and in the land of Narnia, goodness comes from within. Edmund forgives Eustace because he has been forgiven by others. Lucy was a follower of Aslan, despite being a follower all by her lonesome. Aslan the love and desire of her heart. Individuals fear him because he is metaphysical, and spiritual. However, because Aslan is numinous, the fear that individuals harbor…

out to be an extraordinary portal in Alice in Wonderland, the plain wardrobe turns out to be a doorway into the Narnia. The fantastical element of the wardrobe is the fact that it will not work for everybody, purely those with the believability, like Lucy as when the other siblings initially attempt to enter Narnia they are thwarted. The realistic elements of the wardrobe being a normal wardrobe, except when using your imagination gives it credibility to its intended audience of children, who…
